In this month’s Five Wines Under $15, we bring you wines to get this spring kick started.Idilico is winemaker Javier Alfonso’s (Pomum Cellars) project dedicated to Spanish varieties. The winery’s 2011 Albariño hails from plantings in the Yakima Valley, with fruit coming from the vineyard’s second crop. Based on the first two vintages, the future looks bright for this variety here.

Lone Birch is a second label for Airfield Estates. Founded by fourth generation farmers, the winery is named after a 70 year-old birch tree in the family vineyard. At Lone Birch, winemaker Marcus Miller focuses on wines in the value category.

The Tranche Cellars Pink Pape is our inaugural rosé from the 2012 growing season. Since the release of the first vintage in 2010, the winery has developed a strong following for this blend of southern Rhone varieties. As before, the 2012 vintage hails from Blackrock Vineyard in the Columbia Valley.

Chateau Ste. Michellemakes six different Chardonnays each year from vineyard designated wines (Canoe Ridge Estate, Cold Creek) to Reserve (Ethos). The Columbia Valley Chardonnay is the winery’s entry level offering.
